Exercise 3.1

Solving Problems. Solve the following completely. (30 points)

1. A manufacturer produces bicycles and motorcycles, each of which must be processed


through two machine centers. Machine center1 has a maximum of 120 hours available
and machine center 2 has a maximum of 180 hours available. A bicycle requires 6 hours
in machine center 1 and 3 hours in machine center 2. Manufacturing a motorcycle
requires 4 hours in machine center 1 and 10 hours in machine center 2. If the profit is
P450 for each bicycle and P2,500 for a motorcycle, determine the number of bicycles
and motorcycles to produce to maximize the profit, considering that the number of
motorcycles must not exceed 12 units and bicycles must be at least 10 units.

2. An animal food producer mixes two types of animal food: X and Y. Each unit of
X cost P100 and contains 40 grams of fat, 20 grams of protein and 1600 calories.
Each unit of Y costs P80 and contains 60 grams of fat and 60 grams of protein,
and 1200 of calories. Suppose the producer wants each unit of the final product
to yield at least 360 grams of fat, at least 240 grams of protein and at least 9600
calories, how many each type of grain should the producer use to MINIMIZE his
cost?

3. A manufacturer wishes to produce two commodities x and y. The number of units of


material, labor, and equipment needed to produce one unit of each commodity is shown
below together with the available number of units of each of the items.

X Y Available no.
of units
Material 6 4 480
Labor 2 4 240
equipment 0 4 200
Profit/unit P120 P100

4. RFC company manufacturers’ two types of lamps: special lamp and regular lamp. Each
special lamp requires 4 pounds of brass and each regular lamp requires 8 pounds of brass.
During each production period, the company’s brass supply is limited to 640 pounds.
Each special lamp requires 6 hours of milling time in the machines and each of the regular
lamps requires 2 hours in milling time in the machines. The company’s machines are
available only for 360 hours in each production period. Each special lamp requires 5 light
bulbs that must be imported to Hongkong. The importation of these bulbs is limited to
200 units. The contribution to profits of each special lamp is P400 and P360 on the regular
lamp. How many units of the special lamp and regular lamp should be produced per
production period in order to maximize the profit?
5. Jocelyn owns perfume shop where she mixes her own brands- “Moonlight” and
“sweetness”. Moonlight gives her P25 an ounce and Sweetness gives her P16. These two
brands are mixed from three ingredients: A, B, and C. Mixing requirements are:

A B C
Moonlight 0.2 oz 0.3 oz 0.1 oz
Sweetness 0.1 oz 0.1 oz 0.4 oz
Supply 25 oz 30 oz 54 oz

Jocelyn has to determine the amount of each type of perfume to mix in order to maximize
the profit.

assembling, painting, and packaging each model as follows.

Model A Model B Model C

Assembling 2 5/2 3
Painting 3/2 2 1
Packaging 1 3/4 5/4

The total time available for assembling, painting, and packaging is 4006 hours, 2495
